Rampant abuse, hate speech, censorship, bias, and disinformation -
our Internet has problems. It is governed by technology companies -
search engines, social media platforms, and infrastructure
providers - whose hidden rules influence what we are allowed to see
and say. In Lawless, Nicolas P. Suzor presents gripping examples of
exactly how tech companies govern our digital environment and how
they bend to pressure from governments and other powerful actors to
censor and control the flow of information online. We are at a
constitutional moment - an opportunity to rethink the basic rules
of how the Internet is governed. Suzor offers a vision of a
vibrant, diverse, and flourishing internet that can protect our
fundamental rights from the lawless rule of tech. The culmination
of more than ten years of original research, this groundbreaking
work should be read by anyone who cares about the internet and the
future of our shared social spaces.
